William Shakespeare
If you have tears, prepare to shed them now.
William Shakespeare
I am wrapped in dismal thinking.
William Shakespeare
There is a history in all men's lives, Figuring the nature of the times deceased, The which observed, a man may prophesy, With a near aim, of the main chance of things As yet not come to life, which in their seeds And weak beginnings lie intreasured.
William Shakespeare
Old Time the clock-setter.
William Shakespeare
For God's sake, let us sit upon the ground, and tell sad stories of the death of kings... All murdered for within the hollow crown that rounds the mortal temples of a king, keeps Death his court... and with a little pin bores through his castle wall, and farewell king!
William Shakespeare
I know a lady in Venice would have walked barefoot to Palestine for a touch of his nether lip
William Shakespeare
Make use of time, let not advantage slip Beauty within itself should not be wasted: Fair flowers that are not gather'd in their prime Rot and consume themselves in little time.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
The smallest worm will turn being trodden on, And doves will peck in safeguard of their brood.
William Shakespeare
We make guilty of our disasters the sun, the moon, and the stars as if we were villians by compulsion.
William Shakespeare
Grim-visaged war hath smoothed his wrinkled front And now, instead of mounting barbed steeds To fright the souls of fearful adversaries, He capers nimbly in a lady's chamber To the lascivious pleasing of a lute.
William Shakespeare
So holy writ in babes hath judgment shown When judges have been babes great floods have flown From simple sources, and great seas have dried When miracles have by the greatest been denied.
William Shakespeare
Virtue preserv'd from fell destruction's blast, Led on by heaven, and crown'd with joy at last.
William Shakespeare
Now, neighbor confines, purge you of your scum! Have you a ruffian that will swear, drink, dance, revel the night, rob, murder, and commit the oldest sins the newest kind of ways?
William Shakespeare
Wisdom cries out in the streets, and no man regards it.
William Shakespeare
Which means she to deceive, father or mother?
William Shakespeare
All things that are, are with more spirit chased than enjoyed.
William Shakespeare
Will all great Neptune's ocean wash this blood clean from my hand? No, this my hand will rather the multitudinous seas incarnadine, making the green one red.
William Shakespeare
That is the way to lay the city flat, To bring the roof to the foundation, And bury all, which yet distinctly ranges, In heaps and piles of ruin.
William Shakespeare
